Wow! This thing is versatile! That mix bus at the end…WHEEEEW!! This just made it hard for me to make a decision!

Would you mind giving me an idea of the footprint of the drum kit? I can see you've mostly got it on that blue rug. A rough footprint would be really useful please?

Thank you soooo much!!

I believe, based on our conversation, that I got the last of Michael`s Hulks! I`m so glad I did. I have recorded countless Voiceover projects with this!

This is a cool kit. I picked up an Aquabats PDP New Yorker for $150 new and have been really pleased with it. I got it with the intention on having something small for home practice in a tight spot and the ability to bring it to small jam sessions and so far it’s been perfect for just that. For recording and general practice I use an EAD10 which has been huge. It sounds like I’m playing a full size kit because of the triggers and effects, in fact I had to throw a blanket in the bass and threw on a Remo SMT because it was just too bass heavy otherwise. As much as I like the New Yorker I’m thinking about selling it and picking up this Midtown or a new Breakbeats… I just can’t get over the Aquabats theme lol. As for the Breakbeats, there were/are two versions, one that WAS basically a novelty kit that was most suitable for a child, and the other being much nicer and designed for anyone else… it was actually a great kit and offered a really nice looking oyster wrap as an option. Ludwig has now since made improvements on that design and makes them with wood bass hoops (as opposed to plastic), 45° bearing edges and higher quality claws and other hardware.

Thanks for this video! This seems like a great pick for when I decide to upgrade my eq.

Very helpful

Best review ever! I have been playing a Double with Power Glide Cam… and I have always felt that “i’m not that good playing fast double bass drum”, specially for syncopated rythms, but everytime I play other double pedals, I control like hell! So I decided that I’ll get the new Rolling Glide Version for more control. I’m good with the Power, but feels kinda weird, kinda with latency. Hate the power glide cam hahaha. Thanks for the great video. Was thinking to get the speed cobra (it has the rolling glide too, but the angle looks similar to what the power glide does, so, Im not taking risks).

Awesome video!! I am trying to decide on ad/da converters for my soon to be mastering room, and I am torn between Crane Song and Burl... I really don't know which way to go at the moment. I am also GREATLY interested in the dual subwoofer setup as you have shown in your own studio.

On TV, I see the Shure B-52 more than anything else. I'll get a D-6 someday.

Pro tools is weird. Always gotta dance around it to make it work

Why is there a diff mounting system on yours. I saw same set with the L arm going straight into the shell. Yours looks you have a isolation mount which is better.

How would I be able to get this boom plugin? I don't have it on latest pro tools version. Not that I could find though :(

Very nice demo!

Channel 1 on mine doesn’t light up but all the rest do .

Somehow I just got that Sterling Modular desk for $150 (including the studio monitor attachment) - I didn't realize what I actually had until I went searching for it online and found this video! So thank you very much! Turned out to be the deal of the century and I had no idea lol

Obviously audiotechnica put Together a more then decent turntable For a vary good price

That is not a weight...it is a memory lock so you know where to put your beater after you disassemble the pedal for travel.

I like the D6. Good for things like frame drums, Bodhrán, bigger cajons too.

Audix just has that sound. Punch and natural eq. Best kick mic out

Proud of you T. <3

Much appreciated!

I know its an overstatement…But DW hardware is trash…TAMA is where its at…

Nice. thanks for this video. I was hoping to find more about RX on your channel. Maybe in the future? ;) I really like your way of explaining.

I've been using an Audix 6, but prefer the sound of the AKG & hope to get one some day.

Nice pream black lion audio good products

Hi ! How do you connect the 500 module without a launchbox that provides audio and electricity ? TY !

Tama tried and true.

excellent review

Great review.

Very well explained, thanks

Maybe you can help me. I bought a Tama imperialstar for my first kit. Great set imo for a beginner like me. However, I'm pretty sure the kick pedal, hi hat and stands are the cheapest you can find. I want to upgrade the kick pedal. Do you know this difference between the hp900pn vs the hp900rn? Edit: lol. I think it's pn for power glide and rn for rolling glide

Iron Cobra spring just lifts off for pack away or when not playing. No spring tension when not in use. None!

We just got a D2 for Tom mic, D4 for floor tom, and a D6 for the kick at our church. Going to get them on as soon as we get a chance. We like to make any changes from the smallest to the largest when we plan a big practice night/day. Looking forward to hearing ours on a set of DW collectors maple.

I don't like that the Successor doesn't have true bypass. Does it at least pass audio through when the unit is completely turned off?

This is a really great review! You really kept it quick and concise, great to see extra care in showcasing the Iron Cobras features while making detailed comparisons with the DW. I actually already own a 5000 so my current decision has to be made between the power or rolling glide cam versions, I think you’ve sold me on the rolling glide! Again, excellent job!

So awesome thank and yeah I was one of those people until I saw this vid and thank you again

Very useful thank you! hello from Italy 👋🙂

Lovely room and a great combination of monitors. I was constantly thinking about pairing the solo 6 with a sub and use as full range for mastering but i did not see anybody else using in a mastering setup with this combination. 1. Can you share your final room size after acoustic treatment. 2. How far are you sitting from the monitors and what do you think is an optinmal distance for mastering and mixing in a well treated room like yours with this monitoring combination. 3. Can you share your experience with any other monitors comparing to this setup. 4. How low does the speaker go and how detailed and comfortable are you in mixing the low ends and how does it transalate outside. Thanks in advance. Never seem to find this combination elsewhere. Sorry for the long questionaire :)

can you print a mix through this ?

I love Strategic subwoofers.......... you didnt mention the magic of the Toft..!?

I have 2 of these.

Which one is better the AT-LPW40WN or the Rega Planar one?

Do you happen to know what the height clearance is between the tray and the top of the desk? I'm wondering what sorts of things I'll be able to fit in there. Thank you!

Wow! Love it! Let’s stay in touch!

That’s brilliant! Let’s stay in touch :)

Honestly idk what to choose, this one or the Speed Cobra HP910LN as speed and control Thanks for this vid

Audix's signature is clean, unmuffled sound. To be a clean mic, it has to be quick to start asnd (maybe more importantly, quick to stop. Yes, I here that the bass and highs are slightly boosted, that's good sound on a kick drum. I also hear the muffled sound of the others, and the others resonate longer. Watch the camera vibrate with your recording! Listen to the D6 while you watch, it puts out sound while the camera vibrates. The others continue putting out sound after the camera stops vibrating, that is not clean, its "muddy".

I have an old 5 piece kit, 12,13,16,22 with a 14x5 snare. I am tempted to acquire a 10" tom and convert set to a midtown like configuration... 🤔
